While the AIRSTAR was a departure from the traditional tool dive watch that Aquastar has become famous for among divers and aquanauts like Jacques Mayol and Phillipe Cousteau, it still featured a depth rating of 200 meters, a screw-down crown, and many attributes essential for serious water resistance.
This model is limited to 300 pieces per year, it is numbered and engraved on the case back..

Presenting a highly sought-after variant of the Deepstar II line, which marries this handsome white sunburst dial with all the aesthetics of our signature chronograph, but in a more pared-back, simple three-hand option.
Complete with a running seconds indicator at 9:00 in our distinctive "cyclops" totalizer, it retains the unmistakable design language of the classic Deepstar chronograph, just as founder Frederic Robert might have once envisioned it. Indeed, the Deepstar II 'Polarstar' is just what many Aquastar fans have been asking for, and like the other limited editions that have preceded this one, we fully expect this Deepstar II to sell out in short order, so we'd highly recommend a prompt reservation to guarantee yours.
The Aquastar Deepstar II is the evolution of the original Deepstar from 1963, relying on the same patent of the original piece that enables calculating multiple dive and decompression times while housing a non-chronograph, easy to use 3 hand mechanism, and moderately sized 37mmX46mm for great comfort of wear. Being a result of recreation of one of the most influential dive watches of the 60s, the unique and uncluttered mono sub dial, and the patented multiple dive decompression bezel table make the Deepstar an unmatched diver-oriented tool with an instantly recognizable design.

Housed in an eminently wearable 37mm stainless steel case, the new Deepstar II retains the function-first ethos and proportions of the pioneering Deepstar Chronograph from 1962, as well as two of Aquastar’s key identifiers: the rotating timing bezel bearing the brand’s own “no decompression” table used to time repeated dives (the first and only of its kind). It also features the emblematic “cyclops” style mono-compax counter originally devised by Aquastar founder and innovator Frederic Robert. Unique to the Deepstar II, this detail now houses the running seconds register at 9:00. Like the Deepstar Chronograph, the Deepstar II bears 200 meters of water resistance, and is powered by a top-grade Swiss-made automatic movement.
